Solomos focuses on a curated selection of fresh seafood and meticulously prepared tartares. The menu emphasizes the quality of raw fish preparations, offering varied textures and profiles through precise knife work and thoughtful seasoning. Diverse sandwich options round out the selection, providing substantial handheld portions that showcase high-quality proteins and crisp vegetables. The environment maintains a functional and straightforward design, prioritizing the presentation of the ingredients above elaborate decorative elements.

Solomos is widely regarded for offering some of the finest smoked salmon and high-quality specialty products in Montreal, with many patrons praising the freshness and exceptional taste of their bagels and deli items. While the food consistently earns top marks for its quality and flavor, the customer service experience remains polarized, as some visitors report receiving warm and professional attention while others find the staff to be impersonal or occasionally lacking in friendliness. Despite these varying reports on service, the shop is frequently highlighted as a clean and well-stocked destination, with many loyal customers returning specifically for the superior standards of their smoked salmon.
Antes cuando compraba sandwich de salmón el clásico o NY lo daban con una ración razonable de salmón, pero ahora parece que les doliera servirlo. Lo intentan camuflar co. El tomate que es casi del mismo color. Increíble como pueden danar la calidad por minimizar las raciones. Es decir vale 17 dólares un Bagel con tomate y queso crema. Ya no quiero volver. Es la tercera vez que me pasa este mismo 2026.
Even going for my smoked salmon at Snowdon deli for the last 40 years ..heard about solomos many times...so I finally went
Amazing,best smoked salmon
Definitely a new custome
Excellent experience at Solomos Queen Mary. Andy & his colleague were genuinely welcoming, friendly, & attentive from the moment I arrived. I ordered the smoked salmon with capers, & it was outstanding. Fresh, perfectly prepared, & easily some of the best smoked salmon you can find anywhere. The warmth & professionalism of the team made the visit even better. Wishing Andy & the entire team a Happy New Year & continued success. Anyone considering this place can expect exceptional products & truly great service!

This is the best salmon in all of Montreal!! But please 🙏🏻 they need to learn how to slice it, I've traveled all over Europe... & I've never seen anything like it, A disaster ! One small slice, then a tiny one, then a huge one, & one round, then one square, showed it to a chef & he was laughing his head off... How can you butcher such a beautiful product like that ?
Listen, the staff could be friendlier (we were the only ones there, & visiting for the first time - so we had some questions & were looking for some recommendations which the man helping us was a bit short about when answering lol), but they offer one of the best smoked salmon bagels I have ever had. Truly delicious, Will be thinking of it for months to come…
Never been disappointed with Solomos. Best & freshest salmon you'll ever have in town. Melts in your mouth & the taste is unmatched. 10/10 would recommend 😋
Went for the first time today after searching for a quick lunch. AMAZING smoked salmon sandwiches. We also picked up a taramosolata, & it is by far the best best I've had in the city. Highly suggest checking this place out & it will definitely become a regular spot for us!
Solomos, my favorite place !!!

Costumer service amazing, all the guys every single time whit an smile 😊
They have a lot of products, oils, jams, chips, everything whit the quality!!
If you are in Montreal & you want to try the best smoked sandwich that's the place 🐟🥯
This place has hands down the best smoked salmon & my style bagels in town-absolutely fresh, flavorful, & perfectly prepared. It's my go-to spot for an unbeatable breakfast.
However, the service doesn't quite match the quality of the food. The staff is efficient, but they lack warmth & friendliness. A smile or a little more enthusiasm would go a long way in enhancing the experience.
If you're here for the food, you won't be disappointed. Just don't expect much in terms of a warm welcome!
Delicious food, but the service could use a smile!
